Born from heritage, shaped by seasons, and kept alive by quiet care.

A smiling man and woman sitting together in a cozy living room, with a fireplace, framed mountain artwork, and vintage skis in the background.

On-site hosts Chris and Dawne bring a quiet layer of care to every stay. Like your own personal concierges, they’re on hand to ensure everything runs smoothly, offering local insight, thoughtful touches, and a warm, genuine welcome.

OUR STORY
A cozy room corner with a wooden chair, a small wooden desk, a table lamp with a patterned lampshade, framed artwork on the wall, a large potted plant, and a closed notebook with a pen. The lighting is warm and inviting.

Aldourie puts you exactly where you want to be.

Person lying on a bed reading a green book titled 'Wild Flowers of Australia' in a cozy bedroom with a bedside table, a lamp, and a cup of tea.
A dining room with a large wooden table, wooden chairs, and a red patterned rug. There are large windows with beige curtains, and sunlight is coming through. A potted plant is on a small wicker stand in the corner.

Hidden in the heart of Lake Tekapo, Aldourie sits within walking distance of the lakefront, cafés, and local trails. Close enough to enjoy the best of Tekapo, Mount Cook, and the wider Mackenzie region.

Scenic landscape with mountains in the distance, a lake, an old stone church, and trees with autumn leaves at sunset.
